Bagordi Rioja Rosado, Cosecha, 2019, Spain
Grape variety, 100% Garnacha, the grapes are all hand picked while the acids are still fresh, allowed to soak on the skins for 18 hours and then pressed off for fermentation in tank grown on organic land but not certified as such.
Pale pink, vibrant, clean and bright with a youthful violet like rim. Fresh, fruity aromas suggestive of ripened acidic red fruit (strawberries, raspberries and forest fruits), rose petals along with a hint of natural carbonic gas all of which contribute to a refreshing sensation. A really beautiful Spanish Rose full of Sangria like fruit, cherry, strawberry, green melon, and shows a creamy, round, texture in the middle. Then tart Granny Smith apple and a squeeze of lemony citrus clean things up. Prolonged aftertaste and balanced acids.
Made for the summer, enjoy.
